Apparently FF 26.0 installed just a few days ago. Ever since - crash after crash. Safe mode sometimes crashes, also. I've run malware removal, reset FF a couple of times, checked to ensure antivirus declared clean system - problem still occurs. First issues i've had w/FF - been running FF as primary browser on this system for several years. Also noted - after reset - I did NOT install the 5 add-ons I'd had running. FF still crashing. I've included all crash info below - as you can see - sporadic, infrequent crashes - no real problem - until just a few days ago. Now - no stability at all.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. See "Creating a profile":

"no go" kind sir. both my (reset) existing and new profile continue to immediately crash. I get slight stability with safe mode - but that quickly crashes also (maybe 5-10 minutes, 2-3 windows). I'm going to walk away for a bit again...

Try to disable hardware acceleration in Firefox (this requires to close and restart Firefox).
